I Love You, Monster: The Blindfolded Wife x The Masked Husband

Chapter 515 - Yu Chen

Few months after Hinari and Zaki's wedding…

Three men were sitting at the round table in Sei's study. The CEO of Red empire, Sei, President Zaki and the CEO of an empire that was currently rising, the Yu Empire headed by the young man dubbed as the devil, Yu Chen.

Sei and Zaki considered him as their younger brother since they encountered him during the civil war in Country H. He was the young boy who continuously chased after them, purely for his obsession on the hacker Monster, which is Sei.

At first, Sei and Zaki agreed to the boy's request in joining them because of the presence of Nine and Ten. Back then, while Yu Chen was chasing them, Zaki immediately recognized two of Yu Chen's bodyguards.

Number Nine and number Ten were among the experimental lab created kids that was based in the town of Zemei. When Zaki saw them, he was surprised that they had actually survived the explosion. Zaki never thought that two of his kind were still living and serving their very own master. At the time, Sei and Zaki had no idea on what happened to that town, so they agreed with Yu Chen's ridiculous request of joining them. But of course, the alliance happened after an intense battle between Zaki with Nine and Ten teaming up against him.

Even though Zaki emerged the victor despite fighting the two of them simultaneously, Sei was the one who called off the fight towards the end and simply agreeing with Yu Chen's wish. Thus, for a the next couple of years, Yu Chen followed Sei and Zaki around and helped them with their quest – never demanding anything in return.

Sei and Zaki later on discovered that the teenage Yu Chen was just bored. He was aiming for nothing and Sei, the hacker, just happened to be the only one that caught his interest. Sei and Zaki also found out that Nine and Ten were actually bought by Yu Chen's grandfather before the explosion that annihilated the entire town of Zemei.

According to Yu Chen, his grandfather simply gave Nine and Ten to him, telling him that they were now his bodyguards. The old man also informed Yu Chen that the boys cost him a great fortune. When Sei and Zaki found that they couldn't get any information from them, they could no longer cast Yu Chen aside. Anyway, he had been following them like a loyal pet and had never once betrayed their trust. Yu Chen was just seeking for a reason to keep going. It came out in a conversation later, that Yu Chen's grandfather was forced to hide Yu Chen in the war-torn country as it was easier hiding someone who was supposed to be dead in such chaos. The old man faked his death to keep him safe. A special bond was formed between them during those years and Zaki had spent time with his other younger brothers – Nine and Ten – as well.

A couple of years later however, Yu Chen's grandfather brought him back. Since then, Sei and Zaki completely lost contact with him. Keeping in touch was not high on their list too, due to their rather dangerous situation at that time.

The next time they met this so-called younger brother of theirs, Yu Chen was already a CEO. The teenager who was already quite indifferent back then had turned into an emotionless bastard who only knew how to make money. And worse was that, this Yu Chen was really living his 'devil' nickname by involving himself with all sorts of trouble just to entertain himself.

Sei and Zaki was thankful that they made this man their ally when he was still young or else, he would most certainly be a HUGE pain for them to deal with had he turned out to be their enemy.

"So? Why are you here again? I still couldn't forget that you just disappeared like a bubble during my wedding, you punk. You should have at least stayed for a while l after throwing away the flower that you caught! Tsk, tsk, tsk. When will you settle down? Huh?" Zaki was shaking his head.

However, the man ignored him, and looked at Sei instead.

"Bro Sei, I know that you already know the reason why I am here." Yu Chen said. His voice as serious as ever. "Isn't it better if we exclude this guy from this talk" he added as he glanced at Zaki.

"Hah! Exclude. Me? No way. Don't you dare ask me to leave, Sei!" Zaki protested, causing Sei to sigh.

But before Sei could give in, someone knocked on the door.

"Forgive my intrusion boss," Ryuo was the one who peeked by the door. "Uhm… Zaki, your wife is… well, please come with me and go see her." Ryuo sounded like he was in a panic.

Zaki noisily stood. He was immediately worried just by seeing Ryuo's expression. Hinari was getting sickly lately and her mood was also constantly off so Zaki was worried about her. He kept on asking her to visit the hospital or ask Davi to see her but the girl kept refusing, telling him that she was just a little feverish.

"What happened?" Zaki asked as he hastily walked to the door. He didn't even bother to excuse himself.

Once the door was closed, Yu Chen lazily leaned on the chair. He was a little surprised seeing Zaki's face looking utterly worried. Yu Chen remembered Zaki as the beast who doesn't know how to even feel anxious – even when he's staring death in the face. He understood that Zaki had changed but it Yu Chen still couldn't get used to the idea that these two had actually became "normal people" and are even husbands now.

Letting out a quiet sigh, Yu Chen barely opened his mouth to speak when again, there was a knock on the door. This time it was Kaide.

"Boss! Please come with me! Your wife is trying to climb a tree! She wanted to get the ripe mango by herself!" Kaide yelled and he was almost crying without tears.

What the man said made Sei froze for a split second before dashing out the door as if he was escaping a fire.

Yu Chen was left sitting there alone, blinking at the door in disbelief. He DID NOT just see his big Bro Sei imitate 'The Flash' at the mere mention of his wife climbing a tree!!
